The Half Pint Reviews List

The Half Pint

West village beer bar. 24 drafts, 150 bottles and an authentic hand drawn cask engine. Our menu has been praised as "Hearty and Playful" by New York Magazine. Rated "A" by Beer Advocate and winner of Citysearch "Best Beer Selection".

We are open for Brunch (on weekends) lunch, dinner and late night. Our signature dishes are our flat top burgers, house made brick oven pizza, and our unique "build your own sandwich" concept. A hugely popular destination for locals and visitors alike, The Half Pint is always a favorite. Grab yourself a seat by our open windows, or our antique pine bar, and watch the world go by in a city like no other.

"Been here a few times, this was the first to have the Fish & Chips. The fish was not crisp, it was soggy. The fries were hot but also soggy, limp. I mentioned this to the waiter who told me they had a new chef. A pub should have awesome Fish * Chips, miss them here."

"Great food, small serving sizes. Server was pretty rude. Staff was extremely unaccomodating. We went because a friend is vegan and there were some gold things on the menu. Turns out the changed the whole thing and we couldn't even substitute one veggie for another. Glasses were empty quite often. Granted there was 1 person for two large parties but the reservation was made over 48 hours in advance - they should have been prepared."

"I came here from a Sunday brunch at noon and promptly greeted by the staff with a warm reception. The ambience was very relaxed at the time, where I could sit and enjoy myself without feeling rushed. The food was very good; the unlimited Blood Mary's were wonderful. Robyn, my server, was very friendly, sociable, and was extremely timely in bringing food and drink. I'll definitely be back again."

"Too loud. The food wasn't good at all. But service was fine and so was the beer. However, with these cons I'd go some place else."

"I've been here twice. Great on a weekday night but super crowded on the weekend. The food was good but a bit overpriced. We constistently had to flag down a server to order."
